Margaret A. Leary Speaks at Kiwanis Club of Ann Arbor
Please join Ann Arbor Kiwanians as Margaret Leary, Librarian Emeritus of the University of Michigan Law Library, speaks on the history of UM's William Cook Buildings and the Law Quad area.
Margaret A. Leary became director of the Law Library in 1984 and retired in 2011. From 1973 to 1981, she served as assistant director and from 1982 to 1984, as associate director. She received a BA from Cornell University, an MA from the University of Minnesota School of Library Science, and a JD from the William Mitchell College of Law. Leary worked to build the comprehensive library collection to support current and future research in law and a wide range of disciplines. She also developed strong services to support faculty research. Her biography of William W. Cook was published by the University of Michigan Press in fall 2011. Giving It All Away: The Story of William W. Cook and His Michigan Law Quad describes Cook's family background, his education at Michigan, and his great success in New York City, which generated the money he was to give to Michigan Law.
